Discussion    

June is now well underway and the good news in the weather department is that it looks like we can get through this first full week of the month without hitting the 90 degree mark.  The bad news is that there will be at least a couple of chances for some significant rainfall. A cool front will approach the region on Tuesday and its slow movement will allow low pressure to develop at mid-week along its boundary zone. Consequently, the threat of rain will increase later tomorrow and continue into Wednesday night and some of it can be heavy at times. High pressure builds into the region for the latter part of the work week, but the early part of the weekend could feature another low pressure system in the Mid-Atlantic region. As a result, Saturday could be wet and cool for this time of year and some of that rainfall can be heavy at times.
